Newcastle survived a late scare at The Den before Joe Willock's stoppage-time strike sent them through to the Carabao Cup fourth round with a 1-0 win over Millwall.

According to Sky Sports, the Championship hosts pushed the Premier League visitors close, with Tairyk Arconte crashing a effort against the post in the closing stages as Millwall searched for a leveller. Newcastle held firm, however, and struck moments later through Willock, who netted the decisive goal to spare Matthias Jaissle's side's blushes.

It proved a nervy night for Newcastle against lower-league opposition, but the result ensures they progress in the competition, with Millwall's brave display ultimately undone by their inability to find a way past the visitors when it mattered most.
